Recently purchased a Mercedes from Simon at Straightrange and had an excellent experience throughout. He was genuinely friendly, extremely helpful, and went above and beyond to assist me, including handling all the paperwork involved in the purchase. The process was smooth and straightforward, the car was exactly as described, and my partner is delighted with it. Thank you, Simon — I hope to buy another vehicle from you in the future. — Bill

I am delighted with the mini I have just purchased from Straightrange. Simon has been really friendly and helpful, he delivered the car to my home the next day and even arranged my tax for me. The car is in great condition and as described. I would highly recommend Straightrange and buy a car from them again.

We bought a small car from Simon as my son will be taking his test soon. Arranging to see the car, take it out for a run and then doing the paperwork afterwards was really quick and easy. Simon is very quick to respond to messages and organised the service etc so that it was ready to pick up within 48 hours. I'd definitely recommend Straightrange, it was a very easy, stress-free purchase.
